Candle Power is a unique, fun, and interesting little shop with a great atmosphere. It is an amazing place with a ton of candles, including ones that look and smell like realistic desserts and others with wooden wicks that make a crackling sound. The shop has more than just candles, offering tons of interesting items, knick knacks, wind chimes, incense, and various unique gifts. The selection is great with amazing prices, though some note a small "Ruidoso premium." The staff is the best, very friendly, helpful, and wonderful. It is a definite spot to return to on the next trip.
